What is a Responsive Website?

In simple terms, a “responsive website” is one that feeds a mobile version to cell phones, tablets and smaller screens to deliver a better user experience.  With a mobile-friendly website, the mobile visitor doesn’t need to scroll left and right, view 1/4 of the picture size, and try to read extremely small font sizes.  The search engines recognize the growing percentage of mobile users compared to desktop and want to deliver searchers websites that deliver a good user experience as well as relevant content.  The latest versions and templates of WordPress and Joomla are “responsive” so they offer you an attractive desktop and mobile-friendly solution in one.
